News Beyond - Chapter Four Launch Livestream (11.12.2018)

Is there any ballpark estimate of how long the downtime is possibly going to be tomorrow ?

Was I vague enough there? I'm not asking for anything cast iron, just "about 8 hours", "at least 8 hours, but quite likely substantially more than that", or the like.

Yea like this guy idc about your live stream or the devs talking about their experiences making a game patch ... just wanna know how long this trainwrecks going to be offline .... an answer would be nice
 
Is there a File we need to back up so we can put our bindings back in?

Been gone a year can't remember if there's an ini or such.
 
Can someone remind me ... if we've already got the beta installed isn't there a thing we can do to install the live update (which shares some of the files) faster?
 
*Significantly* faster if you still have the beta files. Don't delete before the update is done! Only you can do is *not* deleting the beta files.
Cool ... any known issues similar to that of driver updates where people recommend a clean install (e.g. using DDU) for a more efficient installation?

Ask and you shall receive .....

Greetings Commanders,

The galaxy servers will be taken down tomorrow (11/12) at 9:00 AM (UTC) to deploy update 3.3 Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter Four.

The downtime is expected to last for approximately 9 hours. There is a chance that this could run over, so we really appreciate your patience. As usual with these updates we'll keep you as up to date as possible.
 
After I had played around with the BETA for a while... I have been reluctant to play on the live servers because it felt like going back to using a car without wheels. I am soo much looking forward to Chapter 4 hitting the live servers. This update is good!

Thanks FD!
 
I will be along for the ride.
as one of a myriad of excited commanders awaiting today; I think I speak for most all of the community when I say:

well done Frontier team, once again. You've been toiling away all year like santa's little helpers but now it's time for that labor to pay off.
I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I will.

oh seven guys. you deserve it!
 
I didn't get a chance to watch any of the launch livestream yesterday and seeing as it's 5hrs long might not bother watching on catchup ... did I miss anything particularly interesting?
